    Description

    Caspofungin (MK-0991) diacetate is a potent antifungal agent. Caspofungin diacetate inhibits the synthesis of the fungal cell wall component β-(l,3)-D-glucan[1][2].

    In Vivo

    Caspofungin diacetate (1-8 mg/kg; i.p.; daily, for 7 days) is able to penetrate the CNS in mice and achieve concentrations that result in the reduction of Candida burden in the brain[1].
    Caspofungin diacetate (0.41-41 μM; i.p.; for 5 weeks; male C57BL/6 mice) is a safe antifungal agent at vitreal concentrations of 0.41 to 4.1 μM in mice[2].

    MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Animal Model: Complement component 5-deficient DBA/2N mice[1]
    Dosage: 1, 2, 4 and 8 mg/kg
    Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; daily, for 7 days
    Result: Reduced the concentration of Candida load in the brain.
    Animal Model: Male C57BL/6 mice[2]
    Dosage: 0.41, 1.2, 2.5, 4.1, and 41 μM
    Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; for 5 weeks
    Result: Had nonsignificant alterations in their ERG waveforms from 0.41 to 4.1 μM.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
